A PLAN TO TRY

Start with your existing copy

Identify where you own the base game and which account owns it before comparing offers. An upgrade and a complete Deluxe edition are different products. The Steam DLC listing requires the Steam base game; do not treat that listing as proof that a purchase on another platform receives the same entitlement. Confirm the product type and requirement on your own store before checkout.

Separate included content from expired incentives

The official upgrade announcement identifies Richard, Alexis and the Inmate Michael skin among its contents. Phantom is a different skin with a digital pre-order condition. If Phantom is your only reason for upgrading, read its eligibility page first. Do not buy another full copy simply because two similarly named skins are being discussed together.

If owned content still appears locked

Compare your receipt, the exact edition and the signed-in store account. Check your platform’s installed-content or add-on listing and restart after any available download finishes. These are general entitlement checks, not a confirmed fix for every platform. If the mismatch remains, provide the product name and platform to official support through a private channel; never post a full receipt publicly.
